[GA-MA78GM-S2H, Realtek ALC889A, Green Line Out, Rear] No sound at all

[wak]

in Ubuntu, graphics drivers seemed to be conflicting with audio drivers causing audio not to work. I have a 9600 xt 512mb. WIthout using nvidias graphic accelerator sound worked fine. But on xubuntu sound doesnt work either way.
